ClearCorrect Braces Palm Desert, CA
Clear dental aligners can help patients straighten their smiles while correcting other dental conditions discreetly and comfortably. This treatment is a popular alternative to traditional braces. ClearCorrect® braces are a nearly invisible orthodontic treatment that uses sets of aligners to correct misaligned teeth.
ClearCorrect braces are available at Desert Dream Dentistry & Spa in Palm Desert and the surrounding area. We use this treatment to help patients who want to straighten their smiles but prefer not to have metal braces. Many patients may consider this option because it is both effective and almost invisible.
Orthodontic malocclusions are more than just aesthetic issues; they can harm your oral health. Correcting them subtly with ClearCorrect braces may be a great option for you. Contact us at (760) 565-0234 to schedule an appointment and learn more.

Who Can Get ClearCorrect Aligners
Most patients can receive and benefit from ClearCorrect aligners. This includes those who are missing teeth, getting extensive treatment, or receiving dental restorations. Our team has the knowledge and understanding to explain the appropriate course of treatment for each patient. Some patients may need additional elements of treatment, such as aligner engagers, to get the most out of their ClearCorrect. Patients with severe orthodontic issues may need other types of treatment.
The major factor that affects the success of any patient's treatment is their compliance with the dentist's instructions. Typically, people wearing ClearCorrect must commit to having the aligners on for 22 hours per day. This leaves time to remove them for meals and cleaning. Taking them out for longer can cause the teeth to shift back to their original position, which can reduce the effectiveness of the aligners and prolong the total time necessary to complete treatment. A data review published in the BMC Oral Health Journal found that, in general, aligner treatments work faster than traditional braces.
“Most patients can receive and benefit from ClearCorrect aligners.”
The Process of Receiving and Making ClearCorrect Aligners
Our team takes impressions of the teeth, as well as imaging studies, pictures, and any other necessary documentation. This information goes to a dental lab, which uses it to make a precise model of the teeth. Then, our team uses this model to demonstrate how ClearCorrect aligners can reposition them. It is important to note that specific goals depend both on patient preferences and what is realistically possible. The patient and our dentist decide on treatment goals and formulate a plan.
After making a decision, the lab then creates the first set of aligners. The next set is based on updated information to provide a high level of precision and customization. Most patients need four sets of aligners, each worn for about three weeks, to complete treatment. Depending on their particular situation, some patients may need additional steps.
“A custom set of aligners is created for each patient, and patients will use several sets during treatment.”
The Benefits of ClearCorrect Braces
There are many great reasons to choose ClearCorrect braces. Desert Dream Dentistry & Spa recommends them to patients in need of teeth straightening who are appropriate candidates and who want to enjoy a more discreet treatment option. These are a few benefits of these aligners:
Subtle: ClearCorrect braces are a subtle alternative to traditional braces. They consist of crack- and stain-resistant, clear plastic, rendering them almost completely invisible when in place.
Effective: Treatments like ClearCorrect braces are typically effective at realigning teeth. They are most effective when the patient carefully follows the dentist’s instructions. It may also be necessary to wear a retainer after treatment to ensure the permanence of the results.
Boost Confidence: Changing one’s smile can change the way they live. Many people suffer from low self-esteem related to crooked teeth. ClearCorrect braces can be an effective way to overcome insecurities based on orthodontic issues.
Support Oral Health: Misaligned teeth can be harmful to oral health. Patients with misaligned teeth are more likely to have dental problems and a strained mandible area. For many patients, correcting misalignments with ClearCorrect braces may lead to a healthier mouth.
Removable: Although patients should keep their ClearCorrect braces in as instructed, they are removable. You may remove the trays when eating or drinking certain fluids for extra comfort, making dental hygiene much easier compared to traditional braces.
“Desert Dream Dentistry & Spa recommends them to patients in need of teeth straightening who are appropriate candidates and who want to enjoy a discreet treatment option.”

What You Need to Know About Invisible Aligners
While there are plenty of reasons to choose invisible aligners, you should know that there are a few lifestyle changes and factors you may need to make for them to be at their most effective. We are committed to helping our patients make informed decisions. Here are a few factors of invisible aligners the American Association of Orthodontics recommends people know about:
Required Care. Patients need to be careful when drinking with their aligners. Liquids can get between the aligners and the teeth. Any acidic or sugary drinks such as coffee, soda, and alcohol can cause cavities and weakened enamel.
The Temptation to Remove. Many patients love that these aligners are removable. Still, the aligners cannot work if they are not in the mouth most of the time. Taking them out for too long may disrupt the treatment process.
Cost. Compared to traditional braces, invisible aligners may be more expensive. However, this varies from case to case. Talk with our team to determine what the expected cost for this treatment may be and possible insurance coverage.
“We are committed to helping our patients make informed decisions.”

The Impact of ClearCorrect Aligners
ClearCorrect aligners shift teeth gradually, repositioning teeth without drastically altering the patient's lifestyle. This orthodontic system is less noticeable and invasive than other traditional orthodontic methods. Patients can benefit from the minimal impact on their everyday routines. These clear aligners are nearly invisible, making them a great option for people who want straight teeth without the hassle and distraction of visible metal braces.
The flexibility of the ClearCorrect system makes eating and dental hygiene more convenient as patients can easily remove their devices temporarily. While ClearCorrect aligners are aesthetically pleasing and convenient, patients must make sure that they are wearing the appliance for the prescribed amount of time each day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can I get ClearCorrect aligners if I have dental implants?
A. Patients with implants and other complex situations pertaining to their teeth can reposition their teeth with ClearCorrect. There may be individual considerations, however. A dentist can work with the patient to set goals and delineate an appropriate treatment plan.
Q. Do ClearCorrect aligners contain BPA?
A. These clear aligners are made from a medical-grade polyurethane formulation and do not contain BPA or phthalates. They are generally considered safe for all patients, including those who may be pregnant or nursing. It is important to discuss specific concerns with a dentist.
Q. How long does it take to complete treatment with ClearCorrect aligners?
A. This time period depends on factors such as specific treatment goals and the condition of the patient's teeth. Some may need to wear aligners for several years. Additionally, not complying with the dentist's instructions for proper wear can extend the time it takes to achieve ideal positioning.
Q. How should I clean my ClearCorrect aligners?
A. Use a toothbrush, non-abrasive toothpaste or soap, and water to clean aligners. Regular cleaning is necessary to prevent gum or tooth problems. Follow the instructions on the packaging as well as the dentist's guidance.
Q. Do I have to wear my ClearCorrect aligners all the time?
A. ClearCorrect aligners should be worn for 22 hours every day. This typically means only taking them out for meals. Once the person is done eating, they should brush and floss before putting the aligners back.
